49592, HRC FMIC: Will it fit? Or does the bumper have to be hacked? Posted by MajinVejitaXV, May-27-03 05:46 PM As part of my turbo kit, I'm going to use a HRC FMIC. Question is, will it fit without modifying the bumper? Or will I have to cut it up to fit? | |

Posted by soulcontroller, May-27-03 05:51 PM i had to cut a section out of mine. i should have taken pics, but i forgot... we used XtremeRS' hand jigsaw till the blade was like a butter knife (it was already dull i think?), then we just used a circular saw. muuuch better. | |

Just a shave off the back side of the air dam and a little from the left fog light pocket (for piping). But you also have to modify the 5 MPH bumper. Many guys just leave it off, but I highly recommend modifing it and putting it back on. I used a air cut off tool. Buzzed right through in about 5 minutes total time. Then I had whole bumper repainted!! :D | |
